Nelly Gives Up His Chain For Girlfriend LaShontae Heckard

Nelly may not be thinking about marriage anytime soon, but he definitely knows how to claim his territory. Put a necklace on it.

This past weekend, he hosted a party at Compound Nightclub in Atlanta where he danced and popped bottles with model chick and alleged girlfriend LaShontae Heckard. After arriving together, the two were spotted getting flirty in VIP before Nelly took off his chain, and gave it to his rumored new chick.

He also grabbed the mic, before the night ended, and sang a few Jodeci tunes to LaShontae while she blushed at the sweet gesture.

Tae is so pretty, and she’s a fellow Steeler fan, whoop whoop!!

now I’m all for having some privacy, Bey never claimed Jay and Jay never claimed Bey, but we all knew what was going on, we saw the PDA and we saw the love but all this, “I’m-single-but-I-hang-out-with-this-one-chick” is kind of annoying, maybe thats just me but you shouldn’t be afraid to celebrate and show how much you care about someone. Giving someone your chain is not “solidifying” a relationship, you know how many fitted caps and jerseys I wore in high school? that gesture doesn’t mean squat lol

They’re both nice to look at. She’s a fellow Army Veteran so I’m all here for her!

not really here for Nelly and his fine ass self (lowkey lie detector just went off).
But GaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhD why is she soooo pretty! Like I can’t even deal. She’s definitely being added to my short list of girl crushes. Btw she looks so disinterested having that chain put on her. tihi.

Yall please don’t stone me to death for what I’m about to say….BUT…. I just don’t understand the hype around Tae. Like yeah she’s pretty, drop dead gorgeous, no, Ashanti is definitely KILLING her. Face, body all around.

i am so TIRED of these hip-hoppers (i refuse to call them artists, not these days) doing these meaningless, hood gestures like giving up a chain. wth is that?

He just put it around her neck. He didn’t have some big crowning ceremony & posting it on instagram. NB just fed yall a line & yall played right into it lol. She doesn’t even look phased by it, which means its not a big deal.

She’s gorgeous! Her eyebrows are everything!

I’m sorry but this isn’t good enough for me. Nelly is one of those guys that likes to play mind games. I won’t claim you but here’s my heavy *** chain and a few lyrics. He can kick rocks with that one.

She is too pretty to be his “undefined thing”. Watch Nelly, this ish will get old really soon and you will be hoping a woman will commit to you.

@PoorDat this is very true. I’m from St.Louis and live in Atlanta, he lives in both as well. I remember when him and Ashanti were dating back in 07′ or 08′ and he was cheating like hell! Lashontae was his side piece throughout his relationship with Ashanti. She is not knew, he started seeing her back in his “Grillz” video. Furthermore, at the same time, in 07-08′ he as seeing a magic city stripper and she claimed to have his baby. She got hushed really fast because at the time it was a very big deal.

If he says he’s single then TRUST he is single.. don’t let his kind “awwwww” gestures fool you!! *lol* No Maam…

<_< Side eye to Necole always calling her, his girlfriend when he keeps saying he's single but I don't know why these pics are soooo funny to me?

Seems like Tae hit Nelly with the "What are we?" line so he knew he had to do a publicly "sweet" gesture in order to keep screwing her when he wants… Smh

She doesn't even look happen when he's putting the chain on her but she still had to take a pic with her tongue out like "See *******! I AM with him"… Whatevs Tae girl… I'm just an outsider looking in. What do I know? Lol

Necole are you serious! LOL! What is this high school? Did he also ask her to go steady and let her wear his letterman jacket and class ring? Wait no let me take that back, high school boys claim their women better than what Nelly is doing. I cant…lol

#1 how old are they IMO to old to be in the club and wearing a guys chain as proof you are together is so junior high school he might as well get her a promise ring too . I am starting to lose respect for Tae this isn’t a good example to set maybe she is more like Her character on the game than I thought. Here I thought she was this chick in the army all about positivity and girl power but the more I read apparently she was his side chick for years

Too old to be in a club? That’s apart of their occupation. Jay Z 40 & he be in the clubs lol
& She’s not wearing a chain to prove they are a couple. Journalism 101, write your article in the stance you want your readers to go. NB wrote that headline & yall buying it lmao. He just placed his chain around her neck. Do you say her face, she’s not even thinking about it. His neck probably started to hurt wearing them big ol things lol. Yall would have thought Tae went on Instagram & posted “He gave me his chain tonight…{emoji} {emoji}” lmao

Jayz owns clubs… were as these other people get paid to show up guess that’s his new occupation hosting parties at the age of 40. A regular 40 year old man in club full of 21year olds is to dang old and you know it

+3 Why won't my comments post? Reply:October 28th, 2013 at 11:21 am

Jay Z owns every single couple he goes to?! Oh true lol
& Yes, Nelly is getting paid to appear at these club. He’s getting PAID! He’s working. Why you mad? It’s better than him crying on tv that his albums ain’t selling. Its not like he just went there to party, he went there to work. & he’s also doing that show w/ Kevin Hart that is a huge success so he has an occupation.

Why Nelly got yall so mad? I would have thought Ashanti was yall Bff’s smh. You guys are doing the most tearing the man down.

I ain’t mad about none of it really just passing time while I am at work you the one all uptight behind other people’s blog comments

the only thing i’d be pissed at if i were ashanti is how affectionate he seems to be with her. unless it was ashanti’s idea not to show pda

From the outside looking in it seems like Nelly has commitment issues which would explain why Ashanti bounced & why Nelly is with someone younger. Home-girl is cute & she probably has a nice personality as well, but Ashanti is leagues ahead of her in my opinion.

she’s 34? goodness she looks good! Damn she’s 13 years my senior and yet she looks like she could be my age. Ashanti too looks good and she’s 33. Nelly has good taste in women,too bad the same can’t be said for the ladies that fall for him.

Lashontae has been “dating” Nelly for about just as long as Ashanti has. This is not a new relationship. Necole did a post on it a while back. She got his nickname “Mo” tatooed across the back of her waist in 2005. We just knew more about the alleged Ashanti relationship bc they were both in the spotlight.

These new-age birds are so easily impressed, a chain? Really? That’s all it takes now? Listen ladies, If a man truly wants you, he will claim you. There is a difference between SECRECY and PRIVACY. But then again, Nelly is not a man, he’s a MAN CHILD with drug problems, gambling debt and is in a down-low relationship with TIP.

These two got people upset lmao. What does it matter what 2 adults do w/ their lives? Why does it matter that they choose not to talk about their business. Yall get so used to celebs telling everything, when 1 doesn’t its a problem. Heck yall give Ciara are hard time b/c all she talks about is Future, But give Nelly a hard time for telling yall to mind yall business?
You guys do not know the facts surrounding the relationship w/ Ashanti & nelly. Aint like Ashanti was claiming him like Tae is. Either way the couple is done with. Yall hung up on that relationship like yall use to double date w/ them lol.

Nelly is not telling people to mind their own business, he’s telling them he’s single.
Like someone else stated on here, there is a clear difference between being deceitful and being private. Only a dumb bird who doesn’t understand how healthy relationships function deals with the likes of Nelly. Lashontae is gorgeous but dumb, I hope for her sake that she wakes up soon.

congrats but i could care less. him keeping his romance life private is a ploy to sell records? sit down.

Some people like to keep things private, yet the more Nelly denies Tae, the more vines and instagrams she posts of them. I bet she couldn’t wait to show up to this function with this prize walking right next to her. Can you say D E S E P E R A T E? It’s beyond pathetic really. I kind of feel bad for her. I was caught up with a loser once. She just needs to grow up and let his tired ass go.

Tae looks like a fool! Everything he did with Ashanti he is doing with her…I think he is with her just to get over Ashanti, i really do. Tae is cute, but I liked Ashanti better. Nelly is a clown period fine and all.

I wouldn’t be supprised if by next year Nelly and Tae will be engaged, thats usually what happens. Mess around with a female for some years never claim her then next thing you know he getting married to the next chick! SMH…I’m waiting.

God Bless Necole. She’s the only blogger that makes posts about this “couple”. I guess Nelly had to do something desperate since that album just went steel wool. Nelly been denying this girl and their “relationship” quicker than Jesus has been denying Satan’s re-entry requests back into Heaven for the past two weeks. I bet her simple self think she got a prize….SMH Anyway, that gold chain is the closest thing to a ring she’s going to get from him. She may as well enjoy it.

IDK what him and Ashanti went through and why they split but I feel she fit him better and he should have put a ring on it, but Nelly always have some excuse/reasoning, aint nobody got time for dat! Tae needs to smarten up and get a man thats serious about her cause obviously he aint….a chain? really? lol

Necole you funny haha. But this reminds me of how one of my good girlfriends have been dating/talking whatever you wanna call it a guy for 2 years. They are like best friends, he invites her over to the family functions etc.. they do couple like things.. but he is SINGLE. his excuse is “he wants to make sure he doesnt rush into it”. My thing is, what is there left to rush in? they did everything already. Its all excuses. Men know the minute they meet someone if they wanna lock it down. He tells her “you better not be talking or messing with anyone else” but he still gets to claim he is single. this bothers me because we are in our prime years all in our mid 20s and this is when we should be potentially wanting to be with our husbands. I know she is looking for a boyfriend because she is sad he hasnt made it official. Is this what is cute nowadays? Putting a necklace on it? WTF. Leave and thats when a guy will come running back to you. If you allow him to do this then he has NO RESPECT for you because he knows he already has you and you aint going nowhere. Some people rather be with someone when its not even official just to say they have someone and lose all types of respect when they can be going out and meeting real potentials..

Okay is this an LL Cool J moment…blast from the 80’s giving up chain….I guess if you want to show high schoolers how to indulge in puppy love…

We got to do better…Jay Z is right when he said the internet is a source of power (I know those are not his exact words) but really any and everything can be talked about and gushed over. A 40 year old give up a chain and its hot in the South.

Okay now that I have finished venting…I do rememeber when I thought it was cute when someone in highschool gave me their POLO sweatshirt…and don’t get me started on the matching outfits at King’s Dominion…

LASHONTAE THE SIDE CHIC FOR SOOOOOO MANY YEARS.ALL THESE YEARS SHE WAITED ON NELLY BEING THE SIDELINE HO. SHE COULDVE BEEN MARRIED WITH A HUSBAND HAPPY HOME AND A KID OR 2. .SMH GIRL GET YO LIFE..UR LOOKS WILL SOON FADE AND WHEN THAT MAN GETS TIRED OF U LIKE HE GOT TIRED OF ASHANTI.THE NEXT PYT WILL COME IN AND TAKE UR PLACE. SAME OLE GAME THESE CHICS WILL NEVER LEARN !

What grown woman who isn’t an insecure lil girl on the inside gets excited about wearing a dayum chain?!
Sure, she has a pretty face but the position she is willing to play tells a story of a very insecure woman. And she sittin up there like she got a prize..Nelly does NOT impress me anymore ! IDGAF how juicy his lips are and how much steroids he inject to get them muscles. He seems so arrogant and childlike..I believe the stories about him being on drugs too..ugh he is gross to me.

A man will only do what YOU ALLOW him to do. So if she’s well aware of where her and Nelly stands then that’s on her.

“He’s still not claiming her” … um neither is she. I added her on instagram and she “seems” really coo and down to earth, and she probably has 1 or 2 pictures of him and her in her Instagram photos. And under those pictures never did she tag “my boo, baby” or “love” on any of the pictures so she’s not claiming him either. I do believe that they are two really good friends who happen to really like each other.

For some reason to me this is not a couple to be all ‘wow’ about, ‘aww’ about, or even get all hyped about. It just doesn’t get the same reaction as to when nelly and ashanti were together. His new chick Lashontae is just a pretty faced video model which there are plenty of. And yes I’ll say this Ashanti is way beautiful who can look cute rockin a bob haircut. Just my opinion

A few weeks ago on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on BRAVO, Nelly was a guest and he actually did admit he had a girlfriend (in a relationship with someone). I guess everybody else that commented missed that moment. He never did that with Ashanti. We saw them together, but he NEVER actually said he was in a relationship with Ashanti even when she was standing right beside him. Whatever is going on with him and Lashontae seems a lot more serious than what he had going with Ashanti just from a glimpse. You never saw personal photos of him and Ashanti either, but Lashontae posted one of them on her Instagram. It may not seem like a lot, but in this case, it probably is.
